Call you up in the middle of the night,
like a fire flower FAR OF light,
you were there like a blow torch burnin',
I was a key that could use a little turnin'
So tired that I couldn't even sleep,
so many secrets I couldn't keep,
I promised myself I wouldn't weep,
one more promise I couldn't keep
It seems no one can help me now,
I'm in too deep theres no way out,
this time I have really led myself a-stray
Runaway train never goin' back,
wrong way on a one way track
seems like I should be getting somewhere,
somehow I'm neither here nor there
Can you help me remember how to smile,
make it somehow all seem worth while,
how on earth did I get so jaded,
life's mysteries seem so FADED(???)
I can go where no one else can go,
I know what no one else knows,
here I am just a drowning in the rain,
with a ticket for a runaway train
Everything seems cut and dry,
day and night earth and sky,
somehow I just don't believe it
Runaway train never goin' back,
wrong way on a one way track
seems like I should be getting somewhere,
somehow I'm neither here nor there
Want a ticket for a runaway train?,
like a madman laughin' at the rain,
a little out of touch little insane,
its just easier THAN DEALING with the pain
Runaway train never goin' back,
wrong way on a one way track
seems like I should be getting somewhere,
somehow I'm neither here nor there
Runaway train never comin' back,
runaway train tearin' up the track,
runaway train burnin' in my veins,
run away but it always seems the same
Well I wish I had a dollar
For every piece of my broken heart
Yeah if they gave out a quarter
For every thread of my shattered life
Baby you'd make me a millionaire
But it wouldn't repair
(Chorus)
The damage you've done
The damage you've done
The damage you've done to me
Well I wish I was a bluebird
Honey, I'd just fly away
And look down over my shoulder
At the country down below
Baby you could make a king
It wouldn't mean a thing
Compare the damage
(Chorus)
Well I wish I knew you better
I wish I was close to you
Then maybe I would understand exactly what
I never did do, honey what's wrong?
What's wrong?
Well I wish you kinda liked me, I wish you'd
Spare my pain - why do you want to destroy
Me baby? What did I do wrong?
Baby I could be a millionaire
And I wouldn't care, after the damage
(Chorus)

She wore faded jeans and soft black leather
She had eyes so blue they looked like weather
When she needed me I wasn't around
That's the way it goes, it'll all work out
There were times apart, there were times together
I was pledged to her for worse or better
When it mattered most I let her down
That's the way it goes, it'll all work out
It'll all work out eventually
Better off with him than here with me
It'll all work out eventually
Maybe better off with him than here with me
Now the wind is high and the rain is heavy
And the water's rising in the levee
Still I think of her when the sun goes down
It never goes away, but it all works out

They came this mornin' with a dog on a chain
They came and took my little brother away
His generation never even got a name
My momma was a rocker way back in '53
Buys them old records that they sell on T.V.
I know Chuck Berry wasn't singin' that to me
(Chorus)
Mama,
That's all right, it's your world
Hey, this is my life
She's my girl
My life / your world
I watch that fortune wheel
But never get to spin it
You made me promises, I don't think you meant it
If there's some sunshine baby
I'm gonna get out in it, oh yeah
(Chous)
I tried to leave, but the traffic had been stopped
The beach was burnin', and someone was
Throwin' rocks
They said an airplane had
Fallen in my block
Listen little baby one these days
Your pretty head's gonna turn my way
Honey, oh baby just you wait
One of these nights you're gonna call my name
(Chorus)
Oh yeah, one of these days
Girl you better believe, honey wait and see
Yeah, You better believe
You're gonna think about me
Your boyfriend's gotta big red car
Got a compact disc, got a VSR
I can't do no disco dance
But I can sure love you baby if you give me a chance
(Chorus)
I said oh pretty baby, is it something I've said?
Tell me why little baby,
I said why must you play with my head?
Listen little girl I said one of these days
Your pretty head's gonna turn my way
One of these days, I know I'm right
You're gonna look for me in the middle of the night
(Chorus)

I'm all mixed up, I'm all mixed up about
All mixed up about you
Yeah, it?s having the effekt on me, pullin' and directin' me
I don't know what I'm gonna do
And no I can't find no I can't find no reason
To explain the way that I feel
I remember things being clearer
At one time things were more real
Honey, I'm all mixed up, I'm all mixed up about
All mixed up about you
Yeah it?s having the effekt on me, pullin' and directin' me
I don't know what I'm gonna do
(Bridge)
I'm not lookin' for sympathy
I'm just frightened by this aparthy
Like footsteps way in back of me
On a narrow street of stone
I'm all mixed up, I'm all mixed up about
All mixed up about you
And if time will answer all questions
Then perhaps a film will be shown
Everyone could mail-order tickets
Yeah, you could sell a lot of shirts
For the last picture show
Baby, I'm all mixed up, I'm all mixed up about
All mixed up about you
It's like something is testing me, pullin' and directin' me
I don't know what I'm gonna do

There is something little daring
That I want you to know
Honey I love, yeah I need you
Every night, everyday goes so slow
How many more days?
I wanna see you again
Yes, I remember you smiling
I remember, you feeling mighty fine
I remember your kiss, I remember your touch
I can't get you out of my mind
Little girl, how many more days?
I need to see you again
How long will that take?
I wanna see you again
Oh babe can't you see? I'll be honest with you
Please don't lie babe, please don't smile
Please don't play around with this heart of mine
Can't you see?
It's something I want babe
It's more than that, it's something I need
Oh little daring please be truthful, please
Be faithful, please come now to me
Oh baby, I need to see you again

Please remember, my little lover
I'll be good to you - but how more days?
'Till I can see you again - please don't make me wait
I wanna see you again

Work 20 years and they'll take care of you
They'll buy you a diamond, they'll send you on a cruise
Give it all your money, give it all all your time
Then wake up one morning and wonder why
(Chorus)
Let me up - I've had enough
I believe you baby, I know you wouldn't lie
Like a dog won't bark, like a bird won't fly
Yeah pretty little baby, you're a weapon with eyes
I know what you want, but it's a surprise
Let me up - I've had enough
Yeah, yeah, be honest with me
Honey am I what you thought I would be
You tell me you love me baby, you'll be true
I want be believe you, but I don't know why I do
I woke up this mornin', there was a car in the drive
I didn't recognize it, who was that guy?
(Chorus)
Yeah, yeah, yeah - I tell ya, this is not
A question of humiliy here
